Duet Ethernet Networking
-
Cable to switch.
Nothing crazy just a 192.168.1.1(gateway) network and a 255.255.255.0 (netmask), I was going to set it to DHCP, but does it need to be staticed out?
I am connecting it to the network via 24p gigabit switch using multiple cables and ports, other systems on this switch works just fine in the same ports.
-
Shouldn't need to be static out but try P0.0.0.0 in the M552 line
-
If you send M552 with no parameters from your PC via USB, or from PanelDue if you have one, what does it report?
-
This is what I get.
M552
SENDING:M552
Network is enabled, configured IP address: 0.0.0.0, actual IP address: 0.0.0.0But still no link lights
-
If you get no link lights at all then can you check plugging it into the network port of your laptop (quick and easy way to check if a crossover is required for that switch, unlikely but possible). If you still get no link lights then contact your supplier for a replacement under warranty.
-
How long does it take the network stack to startup?
-
I have not timed it but on the Ethernet its <1s from memory (I don't have an Ethernet board setup right now for test).
-
Is there anything else I could test before sending it back?
-
If the link lights don't come on and the Duet reports that networking is enabled, then either the cable is bad, the port on the switch is bad, or the network adapter on the Duet is bad. So try a different cable and port, and if it still doesn't work, return the Duet.
-
I have tried 4 different cables and 2 different switches. Thanks for the help guys I will contact my distributor for a replacement.

is there something that we should check if DWC takes a long time to connect? I'm set up board>router>PC once up everything works lightening fast (well a couple of issues not withstanding)
